Runners trot through Aurora mall to help feed needy kids
Hundreds showed up early Sunday morning at the Chicago Premium Outlets in Aurora, but they weren't there for a big sale or waiting for the release of the latest high-tech gadget.
Instead, they were there to get in their daily exercise and help those in need while they were at it, during the seventh annual 2nd 2 None 5K.
The race benefits the Food for Thought Program of the Aurora Interfaith Food Pantry and Communities in Schools. The program provides healthy meals to children in need during the summer, when they aren't able to get breakfasts and lunches at school.
The race moved to the Prime Outlets this year instead of its previous locations in downtown Aurora or at Phillips Park.
Members of the New Community Baptist Church in Aurora pray before the start of the 2nd 2 None 5K race Sunday at Chicago Premium Outlets in Aurora.
